Limited Edition Collins Teleshift in 1:32 scale


Recommended Posts

At early stages but considering getting involved with a Limited Edition hand built Collins teleshift from white metal and brass.

Every detail will be exact and will be a heavy model in 1:32 scale so price will be around the ?100 mark.

Probably 100 models only in yellow, maybe 25 in red and green

What do you guys think a seller or a stinker  ???

I like it.

They were built not far down the road from me by Collins engineering, who then went on to just trailers but I think now they just do farm buildings - the Brightwells building at Leominster, Easters Court, is one of theirs I think.

Only concern would be if enough people have had contact with them to make them desirable?

I'd agree with FB, wouldn't have thought you'd struggle to sell 100 though.

Money no object I'd have one, be spot on in a diorama of a Herefordshire dairy farm, couple of old Fords floating about, Howard Rotaspreader, Teagle chopper. Lovely!

Thats the one but i cannot see the wear plates on the cab to stop the boom hitting the windows  ;D that was the best laugh i ever had when the cowman was loading the muck spreader out of the lagoon one day the boom went over and bang went the window his face went very pale  :o But he was using the grain bucket  ::)
